Yes, it’s fine.

I can’t thank you enough for your site. I see that Collagen Dream Night Cream is under safe, but wanted to double check since it has retinol. Is their algae derived version okay for nursing?

The comment is older than the review, there was a reformulation. It’s best to pay more attention to the lists. This is safe.

Hi Christine —

I’d like to double-check with you that the Undaria Algae Body Oil is pregnancy and nursing safe? It is on your safe list, but I read in a comment you replied to someone that it wasn’t safe based on the ingredient list.

I put the ingredient list below from the OSEA website.

Thank you!!

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Undaria Pinnatifida Powder, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Tocopherol, Lupinus Albus Seed Extract, Passiflora Edulis Seed Oil, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Oil, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Oil, Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Linum Usitatissimum (Linseed) Seed Oil, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Extract, Citrus Latifolia Peel Oil, Cupressus Sempervirens Leaf/Stem Oil, Fragrance / Parfum*

*Natural Fragrance is a blend of aromatic compounds and/or essential oil(s) extracted from different parts of plants including flowers and fruits.

Yes, I put it in the pregnancy safe part of the list. It isn’t actually a retinoid or a plant based ingredient that acts like one. There are retinoids from plants that work the same way and I screen those out (bidens pilosa and bakuchiol)

Thank you for all you do!! I truly appreciate it!

Please remember that I’m an actual human. I missed it, sorry. Please don’t freak out on me.

Number 4 has gluconolactone listed, is it truly safe? You added it to your list now in a different category. Please advise.

Ugh… 2 stores list that as a “new” product, so a brand new reformulation. I just spent part of the morning completely redoing the entire list. So, I’ve re-reviewed the entire brand this am.
